Here I am in make believe world
watching new history quickly unfurl;
making as much sense as I can
wandering through with no definite plan;
pain & displeasure as far as possible kept
to real those feelings so under the carpet they are swept,
Past predicaments not mentioned in real time company
where day to day social attitudes find their place & win me
Win me from the dream of pulling a self together;
another mind entwined in a mutual gathering
of outlined futuristic paths paved in formal Treasures.
Rich bundles of worry are the measure weighed in to surmount all graduating pleasure.

I love your language, very descriptive, very vivid.  I got a bit lost on the path as I read, but what's a good poem if you can't read it three or four times and get a different perspective every time?  Keep writing!

"Our time is like a dance of death whose uncanny rhythm is understood by few.  Everyone whirls confusedly without seeing the abyss." - Countess Balles
